I am trying to figure out how to display one value from a e() matrix/ scalar/etc. in the footnote of a esttab table.

For instance, if I run the commands below, I would like the addnotes("") command to display the weighted number of missing values ( e(count) ) from the -estpost svy: tabulate- above. I realize that including "missing" as a option for the -estpost svy: tabulate- command would display the weighted count in the -esttab- table, but I don't want the weighted count in the main table...it needs to lie in the notes under the table. Any ideas?

******************************
webuse nhanes2b, clear
//create missing
gen random = uniform()*100
replace sex = . if random<25
recode sex (.=.a)
//label variables
label def sex 0 "Female", modify
label def sex 1 "Male", modify
label def sex .a "MISSING", modify
label val sex sex
****

svyset psuid [pweight=weight], strata(stratid)
estpost svy: tabulate sex,  count obs  se

esttab  using "`sourcefiles'weighted.csv", ///
cell(" count obs se cell") varlabels(`e(labels)') csv ///
addnotes(" `e(count)' ") replace
******************************


Thanks,

Eric
